Off
we go to the breeder! Not sure if Morgan is excited about the same
thing we were but we were all in a good mood. |
|
|
|
|
|
Here
we are! This is where Maggie's dad (Bear) lived. |
|
|
|
|
|
Can't wait! (why are we all so excited?) |
|
|
|
|
|
Choices, choices. There were 3 females left when we picked. The
breeder put ribbons around the puppies necks so we could tell them apart.
The one with white looks cute... |
|
|
|
|
|
Yes,
there is definitely something about the white ribboned one... |
|
|
|
|
|
Its
Maggie!! |
|
|
|
|
|
Here
are the Mills, who own Maggie's mom (Nala). They did a great job
raising Maggie and we are very appreciative of their efforts. Sadly,
they had to say goodbye. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ready for the ride home? |
|
|
|
|
|
No,
not ready for the ride home. After about ten minutes, we had to pull
over and give her a rest. She burrowed into the grass and almost fell
asleep. |
|
|
|
|
|
This
place isn't so bad. She loves tummy rubs. She will flip
over when you go near her in the hopes you give her a good rubdown.
(Morgan does the same thing, but Maggie picked that up on her own) |
|
|
|
|
|
Her
first day home she mostly slept. She had a big morning (goodbye to Mom
and the siblings, goodbye to the Mills, hello to new family, first car ride, first trip to PetsMart). She woke up briefly for a good chew. |
|
|
|
|
|
Having slept all day, she made sure she didn't sleep the first night.
She woke up three times, and got in some playing at around 3:30am.
We'll make sure to keep her up during the day in the future. |
|
|
|
|
|
Morgan is accepting Maggie a lot better than we ever expected. She
still growls when Maggie gets to affectionate, but the 3am playtimes are
certainly upside! |
|
|
|
|
|
Maggie tastes Morgan's tail. Later in the day, Maggie also got a taste
of pack dynamics...only bite on a larger dog if you want to get bitten back.
No harm done, but a good lesson learned. |
|
|
|
|
|
The
girls take a break. |
|
|
|
|
|
First try at the kiddie pool. Not sure what to do. |
|
|
|
|
|
Morgan does a belly flop as a way of showing Maggie the ropes. |
|
|
|
|
|
Happily at home. And, she already plays fetch! |
